Untreated wastewater from Mohali IT City entering N-Choe
Hindustan TimesEven though the Greater Mohali Area Development Authority had developed IT City seven years ago, despite directions of the ministry of environment, forest and climate change, it has not constructed two sewage treatment plants each with 10 MLD capacity. The IT City is spread over 1,722 acres across sectors 66B, 82A, 83A and 101A adjoining the Airport Road and has major IT companies, industrial units, residential areas, one private school, and commercial units. The first housing scheme in IT City was launched in February 2014 with 325 residential plots, the second scheme in July 2016 with 750 plots, and the last scheme in April 2018. Sewage is being generated and disposed of unscientifically in the choe.” Last month, the development authority had held a draw of lots for showrooms and booths for the land acquired in the IT City housing scheme at Aerocity in December 2011.
